{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After the image is saved to the album, the display result is as shown in the following figure.
Cause Analysis
Huawei Quick App Center creates a ctx object each time when it calls the getContext method, and therefore different ctx objects will be returned. Some of these ctx objects are empty. An empty ctx object may be obtained in a random selection. As a result, the image saved may have no content. The code is as follows:

var test = this.$element("canvas");
var ctx = test.getContext("2d");
var img = new Image();
img.src = "http://www.huawei.com/Assets/CBG/img/logo.png";
img.onload = function () {
console.log("Image loaded successfully");
ctx.drawImage(img, 10, 10, 300, 300, );
}
img.onerror = function () {
console.log("Failed to load the image");
}
},
Code for saving the image:
save() {
var test = this.$element("canvas");
test.toTempFilePath({
fileType: "jpg",
quality: 1.0,
success: (data) => {
console.log(`Canvas toTempFilePath success ${data.uri}`)
console.log(`Canvas toTempFilePath success ${data.tempFilePath}`)
media.saveToPhotosAlbum({
uri: data.uri,
success: function (ret) {
console.log("save success: ");
},
fail: function (data, code) {
console.log("handling fail, code=" + code);
}
})
},
fail: (data) => {
console.log('Canvas toTempFilePath data =' + data);
},
complete: () => {
console.log('Canvas toTempFilePath complete.');
}
})
}
Solution
Define ctx as a global variable and check whether it is empty. Assign an initial value to an empty ctx.

var test = this.$element("canvas");
